Utilizing Facet Wrapping and Gridding to Visualize Data Effectively

Let's create bar charts using the facet_wrap() and facet_grid() functions. Follow the steps below:

1. Create a bar chart of conservation, facet wrapped by vore, both variables from the msleep dataset, as shown in the following code:

ggplot(msleep, aes(conservation)) + geom_bar() + facet_wrap(~vore)

2. Create the same bar chart, but use facet_grid() to grid the charts by row instead of column, as shown in the following code:

ggplot(msleep, aes(conservation)) + geom_bar() + facet_grid(vore~)

Output: The following is the output we get when we execute the code in Step 1:

The following ...
